Writing on their official website, Barcelona said: "The FC Barcelona away kit for the 2019-20 season pays tribute to La Masia, the youth academy that is currently synonymous with teamwork, young talents and the future of the club, on the 40th anniversary of the the creation of this famous residence for players at the historic country farmstead of Can Planes.

"The new jersey will be yellow, with a diagonal stripe in the traditional 'blaugrana' colours, in a throwback to the away kit worn by Barca in 1979."
